Re: [OSList] Sample Opening Script for Open Space w/o Time Slots?

Hi, Jake! Here’s the script I use https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Jjuv9Qw72gSDiXq-rsH19MW3vQSH8wyk5kal99AZgy0/edit?usp=sharing. It’s pretty much straight from the book, concise, simple, and gets the job done. -- Richard Kasperowski | High-Performance Teams Join the community of high performer

Re: [OSList] Twist

Hi, Bhavesh! I agree with you--it's a change, and it's not really OST. It's more like a long-format World Cafe, with pre-set topics. Cheers! On Mon, Feb 13, 2017 at 2:14 PM Bhavesh Patel via OSList < oslist@lists.openspacetech.org> wrote: > This came across my desk: https://workshopbank.com/ope

Re: [OSList] Time challenge - multiple short OSTs? (x-posted OS/GC-lists)

Hi! I've done many sets of micro-OSes at conferences. We've done as many as 6 OSes in a day with a format like this: - 10-15 minutes opening - 2x20 minutes session time slots - short closing On Fri, Sep 16, 2016 at 09:03 Harrison Owen via OSList < oslist@lists.openspacetech.org> wrote: > Sounds gr

Re: [OSList] Accessibility concerns about bending down to pick up paper/pens

Hi, Harold! This is important. I've also encountered it as a gender bias issue--if you're wearing a short skirt or dress, you might not want to bend over in front of the group, and so you'll feel uncomfortable about fully participating. My easy solution: If it's a seated opening, I reserve one cha

Hi! Are you an Open Space facilitator? Are you available on June 10 from 3:00 to 7:00 PM in New York City? Want a free conference admission to QCon New York, valued at $2000? We're looking for two people to help us facilitate two of our five simultaneous topic-focused OSes. Open Space runs from 5

Re: [OSList] Open Space for innovation with group of 8?

Hi, Thomas! 1) We did six consecutive one-week Open Spaces. We did some experiments. One experiment was: free-form marketplace vs time-space grid? For our context, we opened more successfully with a time-space grid. 2) How did I get management to say Yes to a 6-week Open Space? I'm still not sure

Hi, Thomas! I think OS is perfect for this! 8 people, 2-3 days, desire to explore: perfect! When I worked with Nokia, we did an OS for 6 weeks straight. We were transferring responsibility for a large software product from a legacy team to a new team. We could have spent a lot of time designing a
